Air Quality Assurance

About

Breathing air quality testing.
AQA will carry out the test for you and provide you with a certificate of testing. In the event that a test is failed we will recommend the necessary corrective measures and arrange to retest once they are in place. We will also schedule future tests to ensure continued compliance with legislation and undertake to advise you of any changes in legislation that may affect your business. Currently this is every three months.

Lung function testing.

Lung function tests are required on a yearly basis for employees using isocyanate paints in order to prevent the occurrence of occupational asthma.

Urine testing.

Urine tests are required on a yearly basis for employees using isocyanate paints to confirm the absence of isocyanate derivatives thereby proving that COSHH standards are being adhered to.

Isocyanate clearance time testing.

Spray booth clearance time should be measured annually and the time recorded and displayed on the entrance to the spray booth. This is required to ensure that painters and other staff do not enter the booth without RPE until it is safe to do so.

AQA will perform the test and provide the required certificate for display outside the booth.
